- The implementation of a comma/dot conversion. CafeTran treats numbers as placeables, but for a lot of language combinations, they simply aren't, at least not always. In those cases, comma/dot conversion could save us heaps of work. Think of an Annual Report from English to German, for example.... However, the conversion should be optional, and it should be possible to (de)activate it both when configuring the Project, and during the workflow. E.g., I don't want the paragraph indication "3.7.1" converted into ""3,7,1". DONE, as you can see:

- I'd like to be able to "jump" to the next segment that doesn't contain 1. perfect matches 2. placeables (o.a. numbers), in other words, to the next segment that needs my attention because it still needs to be translated, or the tags need to be checked. Again, this could save heaps of work, both when you are still doing the actual translation, and when you are reviewing it. DONE (for numbers)
- A "lock" on the source segments, so you cannot change them accidentally -- apart from joining/splitting them, of course. And an option to "unlock" them for reasons I cannot think of at this stage? DONE. TNX, Igor, that was fast...
- Add the option of removing all target segments in case of a pre-translated file (like a TTX file). DONE. However... I may want to rephrase this wish: Can you add (change by now) an option to "remove all target segments IF target segment = source segment"? That would leave all translated segments in place and intact. DONE.
- As I mentioned, the Project File UI is a bit confusing. Would it be possible to go to your latest/current project if you hit Start.jar, skipping this UI altogether (apart from the very first time you use CT, of course)? That would be the easiest way to resume your work instantly, and if you have to configure a new project, you just close the one opened with Start.jar, and configure a new one…
- In the latest build, CT colours the "perfect matches" in TTX files (and other project files?) at import, so you know what to skip when you are proofing. Another wish fulfilled. In other words, DONE.
